#CovenantReadathon Day One!


**Welcome!**


Welcome to day one of the Covenant Series Readathon! If you have no idea what this is, or if you want to sign up, you can go check out this link real quick and then head back over here for the start of the fun :)

SO. The Return is releasing in one week. (ONE WEEK!!!) Goodness knows we're all bouncing off the walls with excitement! To prepare for the beautiful day in store that is now only one week away, we're going to venture back into the world of the Covenant series. To refresh our memories, get reacquainted with our dear boy Seth, and just flail over the whole thing because it's awesome. 

Before we jump into all of the details of the next week, we just want to take a second to thank you guys. Thank you so much for participating and loving all over this series with us!


If you missed morning email from Val, then your email address is incorrect on the form.  Please email her to correct it. (valerie@stuckinbooks.com)

**Reading Schedule**


In order to guide discussions, we have an outline for the days each book is planned to be read. We understand that people are busy and may not be able to keep up. We have designated catch-up days to help make things more manageable, and there is no penalty if you read out of order or skip one or end up not being able to read everything. The whole point of this readathon is to have fun with one of our favorite series. Don't stress! It's all good. Just know that on the day of each book, the discussions will be based around that day's book/s. 

Monday, February 9th: DAIMON & HALF-BLOOD
Tuesday, February 10th: PURE
Wednesday, February 11th: DEITY & ELIXIR
Thursday, February 12th: APOLLYON
Friday, February 13th: Catch-up
Saturday, February 14th: Catch-up
Sunday, February 15th: SENTINEL
Monday, February 16th: Wrap-Up & THE RETURN


**Chats/Discussions**


At any time throughout the readathon, you can post into the Facebook group or tweet with the hashtag on Twitter with updates, comments, and quotes. Val and I will be going through both as much as we can throughout the days to check it out and chat. 

Each day, there will be a specified meet-up time on either Twitter or Facebook where we'll post discussion questions about each book and talk about everyone's progress for the day. 

Monday, February 9th: 8 PM EST on Twitter with Val
Tuesday, February 10th: 7 PM EST on Facebook with Jess
Wednesday, February 11th: 7 PM EST on Twitter with Val

Monday, February 16th: 7 PM EST on Facebook with Val & Jess

The Facebook meet-ups will be in the Covenant Readathon Facebook group, which you can join HERE.

And remember, you can post in both the FB group and on Twitter (with #CovenantReadathon) at any time with updates and whatnot.
